Thanks, simazing, a cheat sheet will be, well, simazing! *Groan* and it may mean I don't have to fire my current judges!
Question: can a coach be a judge and vice versa or would that be a conflict of interest?
Maybe a coach per event would be helpful.
When real life of fake life and real life of real life both get in the way, that means delay of games!
So the games got a late start today.
It turns out that Stewart was not quite the level of super dad he perceived himself to be and when all the tods woke up smelly, hungry, and unhappy with full bladders, he had to call in reinforcements! Another delay, not previously accounted for, was the pool cleaning requirement for the diving competition. Apparently, when you have that many divers utilizing a pool for that many hours, the chlorine can't keep up. So everyone pitched in and it's sparkly again Then the Trampolinathon diva (who's also a teen idol) refused to get up this morning and slept through her alarm. So everyone took their time this morning bathing,eating, etc and gramps even got a little quilting in. Well, his quilting got interrupted as he was needed for the judging.
So the games are on again! Some observations.
This is a really fun challenge. Thanks for making it.
There are so many directions you could take. My choice to set up the venues at the properties entailed a LOT of set up work. But it's paying off for the actual Olympics because it's quite simple to take care of everyone's needs and requirements of the challenge from that one spot ( or, in my case three spots since I chose three venues)
I've found I've expanded a lot of my relationships. Bonus!
I'm doing lots of different actions per day that I don't ordinarily do and have gotten different island whatchamacallits for doing them. Bonus!
It's been a lot more fun than the same old same old. Bonus!
I've learned that different actions take different times depending on if you're an adult or teen or preteen ( like the deck chairs)
My medals for ice skating and diving have completed two grids for me and I had almost given up on the hobbies! Bonus!
Hmmm, maybe I should've made quilting and bird feeding Olympic Games! Nah. That would've been a two month Olympics!! Hehe.
There's more but I have to get back to the game. Those deck chairs must be really uncomfortable because no one can sit in them for very long!!
GREAT Challenge, Simazing!!
